Former Arizona attorney general, Mark Brnovich, urged the US State Department to add Algeria to the list of State Sponsors of Terrorism,
This came in an opinion article published recently by “The Washington Times”.
Brnovich pointed out, in the article entitled “Hold Algeria Accountable, too”, the fact that Algeria was and is still sponsoring the polisario front, which is a terrorist group trying to destabilize Morocco and the Sahel region.
He added that the polisario front has created “a corridor for gun running and other illicit activities while courting ties with various terrorist organizations targeting the Sahrawi people.”
The polisario is gaining influence, and posing a constant threat to the region, as it is retaining its fertile recruiting grounds.
The former attorney general recalled that the polisario front had stolen and misused international assistance sent to the Sahrawi population in Tindouf.
